its like putting 2 star in Sandy which will slightly decrease performance which i doubt you would notice....it will be fine when you refill with 98 .... ... - .- -.

Thanks Stan yes it seemed as if the engine was working very hard i.e. supercharger sounded a bit noisier - may well have been my imagination - but with 98 in it seems happier

E95 is also known as SP95-E10

It's a 95 RON fuel with 10% Ethanol and widely sold throughout France -though most petrol stations also sell regular 95 and many also sell a premium 98 or similar.

I see , here only 98 is guaranteed not to have 10% ethanol in it , one tank is certainly not going to do any harm . 2008 MY Supercharged
